Extradition

The complexity of international criminal defense is found largely in the matter of extradition. Extradition is a formal process that a requested country and requesting country participate in. A person who is charged with a crime can be sent to the country where the crime was allegedly committed or to his or her country of citizenship.

The United States has extradition treaties with over 100 countries. International cases need to be considered on a case by case basis. International extradition for one client may be to his or her advantage in one situation, and a detriment in another situation. Attorney Hill is highly skilled in this complicated area of law and is familiar with the procedures and policies of many countries, including those in Central and South America.

International Prisoner Transfer

International prisoner transfer allows a person who is convicted of a crime to be transferred to the country of citizenship to serve out the rest of his or her sentence. These transfers are best handled on a case by case basis as some countries have better prison conditions than others.
